All students need to learn how to study, which is why we took some time to learn about learning strategies supported by cognitive research. In the process of learning about learning, students shared their understandings with teachers in the school. They wrote letters to various teachers about what they learned, making sure to compose a clear thesis and topic sentences. If you'd like to learn about these learning strategies, take a look at learningscientists.org or view the video below. Or, better yet, pull aside an 8th grader and ask them to explain what they learned!
